Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL)

Location: The airport is located in Sepang, 31 miles (50km) south of Kuala Lumpur.
Time: GMT +8.
Contacts: Tel: + 60 (0)3 8777 8888.
Transfer between terminals: An Aerotrain provides a free service between terminals.
Transfer to the city: The Express Rail Link train provides the fast transportation to the city centre. The KLIA Express and the KLIA Transit links the airport to Kuala Lumpur (KL Sentral - City Air Terminal) and vice-versa. At the City Air Terminal departing passengers have the option of checking-in their luggage, receive their boarding passes and proceed to board the train for the airport. Immigration clearance will be completed at there. Travel time between KL Sentral to the airport is 28 minutes on the KLIA Express and 37 minutes on the KLIA Transit. Taxis are also available; they should be paid for in advance at the ticket counter in the arrivals hall. Many hotels can arrange for a car to pick up guests, though this is generally more expensive than taking a taxi.
Car rental: Avis, Budget, Hertz, National, Thrifty, and a number of local car rental companies are all represented at the airport. Most visitors opt to avoid driving in Kuala Lumpur, and instead take taxis.
